Question 2 (10 pts = 10 questions x 1 point each) Determine if each statement True (T) or False (F). Write T or F clearly. “White Noise” affects all frequencies equally. The product of a bounded function and an unbounded function is not always unbounded. Biosignals are used in the detection and treatment of pathologies. DC offset is scaling of signal in amplitude. Any signal can be decomposed into odd and even parts. Electrocardiogram (ECG) is an example of a bio-optical signal. Magnetoencephalogram is a measurement of varying magnetic fields. In the transform x(at), a < 1 will stretch the signal x(t) on the time axis. In a general exponential signal x(t) = C eat, C can be complex. A signal can have finite energy and infinite power.
